Anyone have the experience registering a domain name with false personal information?

I’m trying to register one but all provider asks for name and address. Anyone have the experience providing false information? Do they really care enough to check your info manually if you don’t use your domain name for malicious purposes?

particularly interested in experiences with cloudflare

thanks a lot

The issue with using fake details is that you risk getting your account suspended. Also, if your domain gets stolen you’ve made it impossible to retrieve because you will have to verify your information.

How can a domain get stolen?

    Most registrars have some form of whois protection now, so the only people who can easily see it are the registars themselves (and the government that controls them).

    Assuming you’re paying for a domain using real money, they’ll need your information on file as part of the online payment anyway, so using a fake id doesn’t really hide anything from them.
